Effect of Chewing Gum on Postoperative Bowel Function Following Upper GI Tract Cancer Surgery

ABSTRACT: Every patient undergoing surgery in the abdomen will experience temporary paralysis of bowel function. This study evaluates whether chewing gum can reduce the bowel paralysis after surgery in patients undergoing either esophageal resection or whipples procedure. Half the study population will receive chewing gum while the other half will act as control.

Effects of Gum Chewing on Recovery of Bowel Function Following Abdominal Surgery for Endometrial and Ovarian Cancer

Project description:Following extensive abdominal surgery for the treatment of endometrial or ovarian cancer, paralytic ileus frequently develops. Gum chewing can promotes the return of bowel function through the cephalic-vagal reflex and increased intestinal enzymes secretion. The objectives of this study are to evaluate effects of adding gum chewing to the conventional postoperative feeding protocol on the return of bowel function, its related complications, and patients’ satisfaction.

Trial of Chewing Gum to Reduce Post Operative Ileus in Elective Colorectal Surgery

Project description:It is unknown whether post operative chewing gum will reduce post operative ileus. This study is a randomised controlled trial that will determine whether chewing gum three times a day following surgery will reduce post operative ileus. Time to passage of flatus will be used to determine that incidence of ileus.

Influence of Gum Chewing on Postoperative Bowel Activity After Complete Staging Surgery for Gynecological Malignancies

Project description:Postoperative ileus can cause the accumulation of secretions and gas, resulting in nausea, vomiting and abdominal distension and pain. Prolonged paralytic ileus is one of the commonest reasons for delayed recovery and discharge from hospital following abdominal surgery. Advances in surgical techniques and peri-operative management such as the use of laparoscopic surgery, thoracic epidural analgesia, early postoperative feeding and mobilization, amongst others, have been shown to help in the resolution of postoperative ileus. Chewing gum, as a proxy for sham feeding, may accelerate the motility of the GI tract by stimulating the cephalic phase of digestion and eliciting the release of multiple promotility GI hormones. A number of small controlled studies evaluating the effect of chewing gum on postoperative intestinal recovery in patients undergoing colorectal surgery have been conducted. Decreased time for bowel function recovery and decreased hospital length of stay have not been consistently documented, possibly owing to the insufficient power of existing studies and study design issues. In addition, all previous studies have been limited by their use of sugarfree gum, containing known motility agents (eg, sorbitol). In this study, gum chewing was studied for its effect on women with surgical staging for malignant gynecologic disease such as endometrial cancer, cervix cancer and ovarian cancer.

The molecular response of Aspergillus niger to guar gum

Project description:Guar gum consists mainly of galactomannan, and constitutes the endosperm of guar seeds that acts as a reserve polysaccharide for germination. Due to its molecular structure and physical properties, this biopolymer has been considered as one of the most important and widely used gums in industry. However, for many of these applications this (hemi-)cellulosic structure needs to be modified or (partially) depolymerized in order to customize and improve its physicochemical properties. In this study, transcriptome was employed to decipher the complete enzymatic arsenal for guar gum depolymerization by Aspergillus niger.
